vehicle tool kit (for 2008 RS)?

[Brycem]

September 09 build RS wagon and no locking wheel nuts - checked with the tweezers yesterday.

Here is my vRS wheel well exposed to sunlight for only the second time since I picked the car up.

Jack, wheel brace and tow hook only.



If my car (Dec 2009 reg) has locking stud nuts I have no idea where the key (as in keyed tool not door key) is.

Hmm, looks pretty much the same as mine but I have the wheel nut key in the little round indentation to the right of the wrench. If your car has the locking nuts, you should probably ask the dealer for a key.

So my car has the nut caps but I cannot find the clip (tweezer thingy) that you would use to remove them. I might have to hassle the dealer. I might also ask them for a cargo net since it was never included with the car.

Already done but we are getting tweezers first to confirm whether or not if does have locking stud nuts.

Were they ever standard? I think the one they refer to in the brochure is the one that is on the right side of the boot between the rear wheel and the rear of the car.

Proper big mofo cargo net was std on the Elegance spec (which also had dual curry hooks in the hatch). Not sure about the vRS.

I have a 2009 vRS. The tool kit in the tyre includes a tow eye, jack & tools, 'tweezers' for removing the nut caps, and the locking nut. There is a space for the 'emergency fuse/light kit mentioned in the owners manual (but not supplied in Oz). Luckily Super Cheap have an amost identical kit, which fits perfectly into the moulded space. At about $10 it makes cheap insurance.

My car came with standard elastic load cover & floor mats as standard.

Swampy when was your RS built? Is it a facelift?
